wordmine

i
life's journey
through platitudinous wordmines
banal clich? filled balloons
escaping to express feelings
dressing dark thoughts in flashy colors
showing others where we are heading

(so if we go down they can follow
with their dark dressed banal balloons
--markers or tombstones)

ii
God's will Allah ki mashiyyat
sabír karna bhai, sabír karna behín
dekho yaar, oos ki marzi kay aagay

woh tum ko aik aur beti daiga
(bastard, i want this!)
beti, baita, bhai, behín, shohar, biwi
maaN baap dada dadi nana nani...

iii
surfeiting ominous thoughts
patiently circling assassins
claiming us in folded moments
so this love-hate affair
with the Almighty continues
if am His image
one of these days i will
stop losing so...
